“Turkey expects the U.S. to honor bilateral agreements and extradite Gulen,” Bozdag told.

“As two allies, the U.S. and Turkey are cooperating in many fields, including mutual legal assistance. I believe they will respond positively if Turkey decides to extend a request for Gulen’s extradition,” he said.

“Of course, it is at their discretion. However, there are binding legal agreements, and we have the right to expect the U.S. to abide by those agreements just like Turkey does,” the minister said.
